we are well past the point at which anyone who cannot identify bad faith like this is disqualified from commenting on it

the girl and her mother are basically screaming THIS IS A BAD FAITH ATTACK ON TRANS PEOPLE at the top of their lungs and if you can't see that you're stupid or lying
a lot of people debating the merits of that dogshit essay meanwhile the girl’s mom is retweeting demands to ban all trans people from teaching at any level. it’s forest for the trees shit

This is a huge part of why so many people think we're in the middle of a widespread "anti-woke backlash": Small movements opposed to social progress are collected into trend stories by conservative media. Far larger movements that want more diversity are ignored or cast as threats.
"Woke is ruining D&D". Meanwhile Dimension 20, one of the wokest real play shows around, just sold out Madison Square Garden and the Hollywood Bowl for live shows and brings armies of new players to RPGs.

Former #ANU Vice-Chancellor, Genevieve Bell, will receive remuneration of more than half a million a year for the next five years - despite taking 12 months off.

For context, that's more than ANU hoped to 'save' annually by disestablishing the School of Music. 🫠 @nteunion.bsky.social

Every James Gunn superhero story is about how sometimes your biological parents suck and that's not your fault actually. Which is perfect and I hope he never changes.

I reviewed HAIL, CAESAR!, an underappreciated gem in the Coens' filmography. A film about the place of the cinema and Hollywood in the debased, ridiculous American pantheon.

the most likely result of anything that happens is nothing. if you are worried that zohran found common ground with trump or thrilled that trump is going to "help" you should turn off your phone.

but if you are in line to tell a show tunes joke or post a meme of marx with laser eyes, stay in line.
